Ingredients
  

Filling
  • 1.5 lb chicken breast Use boneless, skinless chicken breast.
  • 2 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup Cream of chicken soup, condensed.
  • 1 bag (16 oz) frozen mixed vegetables Frozen mixed vegetables, no need to thaw.
  • 1 tsp dried thyme Dried thyme leaves.
Topping
  • 1 can refrigerated biscuits Use refrigerated biscuits for quick baked topping.

Equipment

  • 1 cast iron skillet

Method
 

Make the slow-cooker filling
  1. Add the chicken, cream of chicken soup, frozen mixed vegetables, and dried thyme to the slow cooker, spreading the chicken out so it cooks evenly.
  2. Cook on low for 6 hours, keeping the slow cooker lid on during the entire cook time.
Shred the chicken and crisp the biscuits
  1. Shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker until evenly mixed into the creamy vegetable filling, then stir to distribute the vegetables.
  2. Bake the refrigerated biscuits according to the package directions until crisp and golden, and let them cool briefly so they stay structured.
Assemble
  1. Top the hot crockpot chicken pot pie filling with the crisp baked biscuits, breaking them slightly as needed for full coverage.

Notes

Pro tip: Bake the biscuits separately and add them at the end so the tops stay crisp instead of soaking up the creamy filling. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat gently in the microwave or oven. Freezing isn’t recommended because biscuits can soften after thawing. For a lighter swap, use low-fat cream of chicken soup and ensure the biscuits are a reduced-fat option if available.
